Default Gibson J-35 Limited run #1 of 20

Here is my Beautiful limited Edition, Gibson J-35. This guitar is a limited run of 20 numbered instruments, Gibson made for their 20th Anniversary celebration of their Bozeman Montana shop back in 2009, this one being #1 per its interior Anniversary label...It is built in the style of a 30's J-35 like their current Historic Collection, but without the worn looking VOS finish. Adirondack Spruce top under a Fantastic Sunburst, Honduran Mahogany back and sides, Madagascar straight, open slotted bridge and fingerboard, Gotoh open back tuning machines, 1-3/4 bone nut on a medium C neck and a short scale makes for ease of playing... This one rings like a bell and comes with its original Hardshell case... $3295. shipped ground Conus.....

That's a beautiful guitar! What's the difference between that and a J45? (I could always use another Gibson acoustic)

Good question.... To my knowledge, the J-35 has Advanced X bracing, while the J-45 has a Standard X bracing.... There has also been the discussion of how the braces are tapered on the J-45 which affects volume. The nut widths are different too, with the J-35 at 1-3/4 and the J-45 usually around 1-11/16...
Also "Most" J-45's have a reversed belly bridge (earlier examples have straight bridge) while all J-35's had a straight bridge with the open end saddle slot... I'm sure I'm missing something but off the cuff, that's what I know...

This Bad Boy is sporting a 2-3/16 spread at the saddle... It looked like it was almost between 2-3/16 and 2-1/4
Thank you for asking
